Warriors will gladly take him off y'all hands. One team's trash is another team's treasure. He gonna get a glow up in GS; he gonna go from a 5 to a 9.
Warriors have no choice but to play Wiggins. They're already missing a significant part of their cap with Klay out, and their #2 pick from last season is missing. Poole's out here jacking up bullshyt too.
Remember how there was that period where Raptors fans and this board were hyping up Siakam as the league's next superstar?
Well, I was on the opposite end, leading the charge and saying he isn't for real. I could see it before it all unfolded he wasn't a legit #1. But here's the thing, he's not going to be that for the Warriors. He's going to be a #2/#3 option, and he isn't going to be tasked with weakside ISOs on the regular, trying to create for himself. He's going to be in a motion offense where he's sharing ball-handling duties with Steph and Draymond, and he's gonna eat off all the spacing there is. He's gonna have it easier than he's ever had it before.
The Warriors have the perfect environment for him to play his actual game, and that's being a sidekick, being a secondary playmaker and showcasing his defensive versatility. This is what GS is missing. It's really the only thing they're missing.

lol where does FVV fit in this? 6th man?
The thing he was never a play-maker, a secondary side kick or had any defensive versatility. He's not a good passer, lack great court vision, inconsistent with shooting and ok on defence.Remember how there was that period where Raptors fans and this board were hyping up Siakam as the league's next superstar?

Imagine this next to Steph and Klay. He and Draymond working together on the defensive end.
That's a career game, not the average.
You're underselling Siakam and you know it, especially in the context of how he'd look in the Warriors system. A lot of the actions y'all run ever since he became the default #1 option, is him at the high post, where you have splits, with another big at the dunker spot. He's not that talented to where he can create in those situations on the regular. Jokic and Bron are the only ones who're good enough to do that. He's a downhill runner, who thrives against mismatches.
That's 10x better than what Wiggins gives the Warriors at his best.
Honestly this is the biggest heartbreak because they could have easily went to the finals if this dude shot 45 percent and they probably win the finals if he played the way he was playing before the bubble
If you guys had anything of value ready to trade, no raptor fan would be against it.You're underselling Siakam and you know it, especially in the context of how he'd look in the Warriors system.

The amount of space he'd have to work with, while the defense is worried about what Steph and Klay, is infinite. The option under Steph/Klay is the forgotten man, and is typically either always open or up against the worst defender. He'll be playing on easy mode.
That's 10x better than what Wiggins gives the Warriors at his best.
